Science as the spark: literature inspired by science
Anglia Ruskin University, Thursday 20 March, 7:00pm – 8:30pm
How has scientific inquiry lead to literary works? Why is the literary presentation of science relevant to scientists and society? A panel sponsored by the BSLS, including Chris Beckett, Dave Clements, Laura Dietz and Kelley Swain, and chaired by BSLS Chair John Holmes, will skirt the ‘inspiring science!’ cliche to ask illuminating questions, including why scientists and historians who can communicate in any genre, and artists who can draw on any inspiration, choose to structure their work at the intersection of these fields.
